LSA was introduced in~\cite{deerwester1990indexing} and has since become a standard tool in the field of Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval. At the heart of LSA lies the \emph{Singular Value Decomposition} algorithm, which makes LSA (sometimes also called Latent Semantic Indexing, or LSI) really just another member of the broad family of applications that make use of SVD's robust and mathematically well-founded approximation capabilities, from Image Processing; or Signal Processing, where SVD is commonly used to separate signal from noise. SVD is also used in solving shift-invariant differential equations, in Geophysics, in Antenna Array Processing, \ldots}. In this way, although we will discuss our results in the perspective and terminology of LSA and Natural Language Processing, our results are in fact applicable to a wide range of problems and domains across much of the field of Computer Science.TI - Speeding Up Latent Semantic Analysis: A Streamed Distributed Algorithm for SVD UpdatesPY - 2010PB - INSTICC PressKW - svd lda lsiSN - 9789898425409ER -
